Tax hike unlikely as lawmakers mull Kansas budget
Kansas legislators, led by conservatives in KLEAR, oppose new taxes amid a slow economy and recent layoffs in aircraft and telecom sectors. Some lawmakers warn the state may need revenue changes, with slot machines at racetracks as a potential compromise. Public schools face cuts even if open next year, as debates hinge on voter sentiment and party balance.
